This post describes how to do this, and provides a sample in C#. It is simple to extend this sample to iterate through all documents in a library, apply some changes to each one, and save them back.

You can then modify it as necessary, and then put it back into the document library, either as a new document, or replacing the original. In a web application, you may want to fabricate Open XML documents on the fly and serve them up to remote users. You don’t want to serialize such Read More...

• Removing Comments and Personal Information, and Accepting Revisions in an Open XML Document Stored in SharePoint

  This post presents a custom application page in SharePoint that uses Open XML, the Open XML SDK and LINQ to XML to accept revisions, remove comments, and remove personal information from an Open XML word processing document. The following 45 second screen-cast demonstrates the code presented in this post. Video: Using Open XML with SharePoint An approach that has interesting possibilities would be to create SharePoint workflows that query and modify Open XML documents. For example, you could write Read More... Posted Tuesday, July 22, 2008 11:45 PM from Eric White's Blog | (Comments Off) Filed under: OpenXML, LINQ to XML, SharePoint, Screencast, OpenXmlSdk
